can also serve as input for the statistical total
correlation spectroscopy (STOCSY) method to
help identify peaks belonging to the same
metabolite or within the same metabolic
pathway, as these may be changing in
concert. 48,49 STOCSY is based on a method
originally proposed by Noda for generalized
two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy and
